Quotations of Wit and Wisdom Tekijä: John W. Gardner

This book consists of a series of quotes arranged thematically on various subjects. Chapter titles included subjects like Education, Change, History, and Writers and Writing, among many others. I picked this book up because it was recommended by Robert Fulghum (Everything I Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten) in his collection of quotes, Words I Wish I Wrote (which is fantastic, if you were wondering). Unfortunately, disappointed doesn't begin to cover my feelings for this book. I was bored out of my mind, and it took me months to wade all the way through it. The quotes were neither witty nor wise, although I do have to admit that there was an occasional gem, which I assume were included by accident. Seriously, out of all the great things that people have said and written throughout history, this was the best they could come up with?… (lisätietoja)
